xfce4 installation on top of clean RPi install doesn't run?
-
I used to be able to install it and simply enter it with startxfce4, but it doesn't seem to install all of it properly and there's no X server etc, had to manually specify to install xorg, but still not working, am I missing a step somewhere or what?
thanks in advance.

@sunwind are you installing xfce for Debian/ Raspbian? Lxde is default for Raspbian but I'm sure xfce can be installed. Never actually tried it on the Pi but I use xfce on my Laptop. I reallly like it.

@columboscoat It might be because I followed this guide; http://linuxg.net/how-to-properly-remove-lxde-and-install-xfce-on-raspbian-debian-for-raspberry-pi/ which has you remove LXDE and then install xfce, but the thing is I've followed that before and I could always just startxfce4 fine afterwards, maybe something to do with a newer retropie version removing lxde breaks this method?
will try again without doing that, just wanted to slim things down as much as possible.
